Got to shake Kurts hand while he was in Allen Johnson's pit. Allen and Roy were showing him around a Pro stocker. Had some cool pics of the 3 of them but the got deleted somehow.

the attention to detail is awesome.i like the clean polished look, not many decals on it.

You definitely wont see two engine compartments with that setup in Super Gas! Very cool though. I think I would be taking that thing to a different venue. It screams DOT class. He will have to step up the performance though. Those fools are hauling the mail on DOT's

Block wise, its a 6.1 Gen III Hemi. It started life with 370 cubes, however I don't know how much stroke or bore was added to his current one. I know he spilt cylinder walls on at least 2 of his eariler blocks around the 1000 hp mark and I think his current engine can put out over 1100 hp.

On the interview I saw he said that he felt that a 7-sec pass wasn`t out of reach.

I think he must have some really long arms.

I forgot what show it was but someone asked him about the true potential of the car and that`s what he said. Maybe he should stick to turning left.
